Title: Improvements in or relating to automatic code senders
IPC: H04L12/06
Filed: 1938-04-01
Abstract: 513,137. Electric signalling systems. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES, Ltd., and RATTUE, E. A. April 1, 1938, No. 10093. [Class 40 (i)] An automatic code sender for wireless beacons &c., comprises a number of motor driven codediscs each having a predetermined combination of short and long projections (for dots and dashes) and each co-operating with a make and break contact connected to the keying circuit through a sequence switch or marker which determines the order or number of repetitions of the signals to be transmitted, the motor being started up at predetermined times and stopped automatically under the control of the marker when the predetermined signals have been transmitted. As shown, the sender has two codediscs A, B and associated contacts E, F which are connected to the contacts of sequence C in accordance with the desired sequence and repetitions of codes, the switch C being driven one step per revolution of the discs or more rapidly by cam-controlled pawl and ratchet gearing (not shown). The wiper of switch C and the common connection of contacts E. F are connected to the keying circuit KC of a carrier wave transmitter. The sender is controlled by clock contacts N1, N2 of which N1 is closed, e.g., nine minutes per half-hour and N2, thirty seconds per six minutes. When N1 closes, relay R7 closes the supply circuits of the carrier transmitter and N2, closing after a period to allow the carrier transmitter to become effective, operates relay R1 which starts the driving motor M. When the motor has speeded up, centrifugal contacts K2 operate clutch J and shaft S commences to rotate. Projection d1 on control disc D permits the closure of contacts H to hold relay R1 independent of N2. Codes are then transmitted as determined by discs A, B and switch C, and after a predetermined time, projection d1 opens contacts H to release R1 whereupon the motor is stopped. If contacts W are closed to short-circuit N1, e.g., in foggy weather, the carrier transmitter remains effective and the codes are sent out at intervals determined by N2. Change-over switch V permits the clock control to be applied to a distant transmitter. Supervisory arrangements. Neon lamp Y1 fed by line W from the carrier transmitter glows when the aerial is supplied with carrier. The carrier is also tapped off, rectified and applied to relay R2 which opens the circuit of R3 closed when R1 operates to start the motor, R3 being slowto-operate so that it does not pull up on signal interruptions of the carrier. If the carrier fails Y1 is extinguished and R3 operates the alarm bell T. The modulating current is tapped off, rectified and applied to R4 which if de-energized, operates R3 to sound the alarm and light lamp Y2. If the code-sender does not start or reach operating speed relay R5 operated over centrifugal contacts K1 whereupon R6 pulls up, lights lamp Y3 and sounds the alarm.

Patent GB-393397-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in means for indicating and recording angular positions of a rotatable member
IPC: G01D15/24
Filed: 1932-04-13
Abstract: 393,397. Recording-apparatus. BENDIX AVIATION COR. PORATION, 105, West Adams Street, Chicago, U.S.A. April 13, 1932, No. 10621. Convention date, April 13, 1931. [Class 106 (iv).] An apparatus for recording the angular positions of a rotatable member, as for example a wind vane, comprises a rack and pinion device for converting the angular motion into rectilinear motion and independent means whereby the rack is caused to move in a reverse direction, when it has reached the end of its travel in either direction, without affecting the rotatable member, the recording pen moving to a corresponding marked position on the chart. As shown applied to a wind direction recorder, the wind vane is connected to a shaft 4, Fig. 1, either directly or by means of a transmitter coupled to the shaft of a Selsyn motor. The shaft 4 is provided with a spider 3 to which is pivoted a spring-controlled arm 5 carrying a roller 6 bearing on a heart cam 8 bv means of which the movement of the vane is imparted to a spindle 12. The spindle 12 carries a pinion 13 engaging a rack 14 to which the recording pen arm 15 is attached. The pen 16 co-operates with a clock-driven record strip 18. The length of the rack 14 is such that one and one half revolutions of the shaft 4 will cause the pen to travel the width of the strip. The strip is graduated as shown in Fig. 2, and when the pen reaches an edge position, say N, it is moved to the corresponding marked inside position by means of a shift mechanism. This mechanism comprises a control shaft 22 carrying a gear wheel 21 and reversing disc 59. The wheel 21 is driven by a pinion 20 on the shaft 12 and on the rack reaching the limit of movement in either direction a pin 23 or 24 on the wheel 21 depending on the direction of rotation rocks a trigger 25 to operate a latch lever 35. The movement of the latch frees a roller 39 on an arm 28 of a toggle system 27 which operates, through a roller 40 on an arm 29, to close the contacts 44, 45 of the circuit of a solenoid 49 thereby causing the armature 50 to rock a lever 51 and shaft 53. The movement of the shaft 53 is adapted to cause reverse rotation of the shaft 22 by reason of the engagement of an arm 56 on the shaft 53 with one or other of the pins 57, 58 on the disc 59 whereby the pen is returned to the corresponding mark on the record strip or chart. After the contacts have been closed an arm 60 of the lever 51 engages an extension 62 on the toggle arm 28 whereby the contacts are opened and the toggle arms reset by the connecting spring 32 to normal position, the roller 39 on the arm 28 being held by a block 37 on the latch lever 35. The heart cam 8 and roller 6 prevent the reverse movement of the shaft 12 being transmitted back to the shaft 4.

Inventor: STOCKTON FRANK WEBB
IPC: A63B39/02
Filed: 1916-07-27
Abstract: 103,442. Stockton, F. W. July 27, 1916. Balls.-Leakage and consequent reduction of pressure during the storage of tennis balls and other objects containing fluid under pressure is prevented by enclosing the ball &c. 2 in a container 1 having an air-tight cover 3, and introducing into the container fluid of the same pressure as that in the ball. The fluid may be of the same composition as that within the ball and may be introduced by passing a tubular needle 6 through a hole in the cover and through a block of rubber 5. The hole in the cover 3 may afterwards be closed by cement or solder. In a modified method, the requisite pressure is obtained by placing a suitable chemical, such as ammonium nitrite, in the container, sealing the container, and applying heat so as to decompose the chemic al.
